Tonya Glimmerdal

Tonya Glimmerdal is the only child in Glimmerdal. She is almost ten years old, has red hair, freckles on her knees, and a very restless nature. Tonia's best friend is old Gunvald, her godfather. She can talk to him about anything in the world. He used to be a violinist, but now he makes her real chocolate cocoa from bars, builds snowmen, and seems unable to live a day without Tonia. But does she really know him well?
When Gunvald is hospitalized, Toni discovers a huge secret that, it turns out, everyone knew except her! And this secret is so shocking that it could destroy their cozy life in Glimmerdal. As spring melts the snow and makes the mountains shine and the river roar, the little thunderbird of Glimmerdal does everything she can to make her best friend in the world, Gunvald, happy again and start playing the violin...
